    Great run to end the half. Wow, this Bull's team is slowly starting to look as bad as the first time we faced them.

    Good run there at the end of the 2nd to go up by 4 heading into halftime.
    If Brandon can get himself going in the second half, we should have this one as a win. If he continues to struggle, we will probably have to gut this one out.

    Halftime lead! Much love for Outlaw's game tonight. I like that he's looking to get around his man and get to the rim. He's active on defense although he still needs to help on the boards.

    Nice finish of the 1st half by the Blazers. We took care of the ball and took good shots, while defending well and limiting the Bulls to one and dones.

    Imagine how good this team will be when Roy, Aldridge and Oden are good at the same time. Oy.

    You mean "Charles"? Seriously how can they possibly keep calling Travis "Charles". Once i can see, but are they really that uninformed in Chicago that they honestly don't know his freaking name?

    Please be joking, really would like to see any of us try to play NBA level ball after a year long hiatus due to MF surgery and the year prior his shooting wrist was hurt...give the kid time and touches and he will progress

    Re: Blazers @ Chicago Game Thread

    Is that Day1, the day after his surgery? Or, Day1 his first NBA game after not playing competitve ball for almost 18 months?

    And, even with the way he dominated in the first half, he's barely scratched the surface of his potential. He still isn't half way through the season following his MF surgery - and he's a rookie. Wait until he gets his quickness and explosiveness back - and learns how to play at the NBA level. He'll be dominating every game. Just give him time. He'll get there. I've never doubted it.
